“Clam" Chairs in Sheepskin by Arnold Madsen for Madsen & Schubell, Denmark 1944
Located in Utrecht, NL
These “Clam” chairs have a beloved design, thanks to which it is considered by many as one of the most attractive chairs of Nordic Design. At the same time, these chairs are arguably also the most mysterious piece on the Danish furniture market.
The model has a rather perplexing history, and has been attributed to several designers before, the latest being the Danish architect Phillip Arctander. However, recent research revealed that the “Clam” is the model that in fact started the story of Madsen & Schubell. Arnold Madsen designed this model in 1944 in his small basement workshop in Gothersgade, Copenhagen.
This set has a characteristic organic shape with soft curves, perched on club-shaped beech legs. The name comes from the shape of the seat and back that together form the silhouette of an open clam. The round armrests compliment the overall round feel of the chairs. The seat is slightly raised towards the front, while the back is tilted to provide great sitting comfort. The seat and back are covered in light sheepskin, adding to the soft and cosy feel of this “Clam”. Interestingly, Hans Schubell invented the special connecting piece of this chair, formed from only one piece of wood. The rest of the seat and backrest were glued to this single piece.
In 1944, the chair was already exhibited in conjunction with the presentation of the newly opened furniture store NY FORM A/S in Copenhagen, which sold the leading design of the day. In 1945, the Clam went into serial production as the first model of the new furniture company Madsen & Schubell and many well-known stores soon included Madsen & Schubell in their product range. Illums Bolighus was one of them, as were the Messen department store and the Copenhagen furniture store Nordisk Staal-og-Møbel Central. In 1953, Madsen & Schubell sold the licence of the chair to the Norwegian company Vik and Blindheim.
Condition:
In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The chairs have been recently reupholstered in light sheepskin. Each of our items can be re-upholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice. Please reach out for more information.

Swedish Modern Lounge Chair with Footstool, Sweden 1940s
Located in Utrecht, NL
Before the war, “Swedish Modern” was a word which had a clear-cut definition in design terms. It was style-forming and came about through the determined aesthetic to raise the standard of the Swedish home and to improve the taste for a better quality of design. It is an inheritance coming from a rich tradition of beauty loving people who were courageous enough to break away from the swaddling clothes of the past to entertain new forms for living.
In general, qualities of Swedish modern furniture include simple clean lines without excess decoration, made with mostly light-coloured woods, in this case, birch. This set has an understated, elegant look that is harmonious and well-balanced. The peculiar looking lounge chair has an elongated silhouette, with gentle, rounded edges and warmth expressed through the design. The long seat together with the footstool assures an exceptional lounging experience. The arms curve outwards, and the back has button tufting which are the main purely decorative elements of the design. Besides the seat, the bent back legs are the main distinguishing elements, serving a functional role. The thread running through Scandinavian design is functionalism, which is the most evident in the sturdy frame and the footstool, which further elongates the chair’s seat visually. At the same time, the half circle shape also serves a purely aesthetic role, enhanced by the buttons that also tie it together with the chair. The tapered birch legs assure stability and along with the bouclé upholstery, add to the overall modern, elegant look.
Moving into the machine age, life became somewhat easier, and functionalism evolved into also meeting the emotional needs of people. This gave Swedish functionalism a more natural and humanistic side, which is evident when looking at this set.
Condition:
In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The chair and stool have been reupholstered recently in a premium bouclé fabric. Each of our items can be re-upholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice.
